What keeps the planets in your solar system from floating away?
The force of the Sun's gravity keeps them in their orbits.
Why do the 8 planets keep orbiting the sun?
The sun's gravity keeps them in orbit and prevents them from flying off into space. The planets travel quickly enough that they do not fall into the sun.
If the force of gravity suddenly stopped acting on the planets they would do what?
Gravity is what keeps the planets going in their orbits. If gravity just stopped, then the planets would go flying in a straight line tangent to their orbit.
What keeps the planets in our solar system in orbit around the Sun?
The Sun's strong gravity keeps all the planets in orbit around it.
What keeps the planets from being pulled into the sun?
Gravitation keeps the planets from being pulled into the Sun.
What keeps the solar system in balance?
Gravity and motion. Gravity pulls the planets in and keeps them from flying away, while the velocity of the planets keeps them from being sucked in completely.
The pull of the sun that keeps the planets in their places?
The Sun's Gravitational pull keeps the planets orbiting it, not flying into deep space.
What force keeps the moons from floating away from the planets?
what keeps the moon from flying off into outer space
What prevents a planets moon from flying into space?
The gravity of the sun an each moon's respective planet keeps them from flying into space.
What keeps the planets in the solar system in orbit around the sun?
The Sun's strong gravity keeps all the planets in orbit around it.
What keeps the planets in your solar system?
The suns gravitational pull.
What keeps the planets in your solar system from floating away?
The force of the Sun's gravity keeps them in their orbits.
How does gravity help planets and stars and solar system?
it keeps it in orbit
What effect does the sun have on your solar system?
The suns gravitational pull keeps all the planets revolving around it. Without it, all the planets would go flying off into who knows where (including Earth) and the planets would of course crash into other objects and everything and everyone on Earth would die.
Why do the 8 planets keep orbiting the sun?

Gravity is what keeps the planets going in their orbits. If gravity just stopped, then the planets would go flying in a straight line tangent to their orbit.
What is important in the solar system?
the sun because it keeps the planets in orbit and provides heat.
